Karden

Walter Karden invented or improved a two-stroke engine with which the east Germans won all the motorcycle races until Suzuki stole the idea - per the BBC 23 November 1997.

I bought some bottles of wine many years ago from the small town of Karden on the Moselle, to impress my friends. Not as good as the wonderful 1995 vintage of wine from the Carden estate in Cheshire marketed by Three Choirs.
